Taking your urban dog for a walk reminds me of the Postman’s Creed, as with unfailing determination, I find myself with all the other dog owners standing in the rain while the dogs inspect every bush and blade of grass. I sometimes hear of dogs who refuse to go out in the rain. Sometimes I wish my dog was one of those dogs. Typically Moose does his business quickly, but after days of rain, he doesn’t care. He is outside, he is a dog and and I was at least smart enough to dig out my winter coat.
